2 is more than a number v
2 > v is your equality
this means that <em>v</em> can be the number 1 or less
hope this helps
Answer:
use logarithms
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...
a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents
(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs
but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...
x +3 = b^(x -6)
There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.
In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.
Answer:
8 lemonade and 24 iced tea
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2=0.5
0.5x16=8 lemonade
1 1/2=3/2=1.5
1.5x16=24 iced tea
According to the 72 rule
72/rate=time
72÷9.6=7.5 years
Another way to solve by using the main equation
2300=1150(1+0.096/4)^4t
Solve for t
t=((log(2,300÷1,150)÷log(1+(0.096÷4))÷4))=7.31years
Hope it helps :-)
Answer:
The final depth of Melissa is 14 meters below the surface
Step-by-step explanation:
In this kind of problems, involving directions, etc, usually one position is the positive direction and the other position is the negative direction.
In our problem, we suppose that the surface is the positivo zero, above the surface is the positive position(positive depth) and below the surface is the negative directions(negative depth).
The problem states that Melissa is 29 meters below the surface. So, her initial position is 29 meters in the negative direction, so it is equal to -29.
Then, the problem states that Melissa rises upward 15 meters. Upward is the positive direction, so she moved to the positive direction. It means that we are going to do -29+15 = -14 meters.
It means that the final depth of Melissa is 14 meters below the surface
